California Senator Scott Wiener is introducing a new set of bills to make streets safer across the state, including one that would change how you drive.
You think so? Or is that just what it ought to be? In your experience.
For example a road near me passes through a small 6 building town and the 2 lane road drops from 60, 55, 45, 35 for 1/2 mile and I gotta say I don’t know anyone who naturally slows down unless they see a cop
There isn’t anything in the town that would give you pause to slow down. No schools, no buildings close to the road, nothing. I think it’s all a ticket scheme. If the cops were more proactive they’d be making a fortune.
Again, lots of one off cases. And yes that very likely could be a ticket scheme but it’s pretty common to reduce speed limits through rural towns. I’ve seen it handled well, and I’ve seen it handled, let’s say in a predatory manner. But imagine a 90 year old woman pulling out of a church parking lot in to traffic blowing through town at 60 miles an hour, there’s a reason to divert from the recommendation there.
